make sure you didn't turn off the button on the side of the pot. That's the only thing I can think of. Hope it helps.

Assuming you didn't disassemble it for cleaning, these should be unrelated. I just had the same problem. Mine was 2.5 years old. There's a 3 year warranty. They sent me a new one. With a new warranty. If it's over 3 years old, it's time to buy a new one.

I don't know what to tell you...I'm frustrated mine is acting up...it just gives hot water, ZERO espresso, something is not working. I wouldn't buy another Krups again, that's for sure.

Had the same problem, used a paper clip to unclog the part where the water come through (the metal pointy part that pokes the hole in the k-cup). Didn't have much success until I kept doing it and ran water through and then *as water sputtered through, I lifted the handle to make it stop, then put it right back down to resume.* each time coffee grounds came out little by little until POP the clog came out and water poured out. It's now working great!!!

James, just pour the water slowly in, I first had problems with water spillage, had a regular Cuisinart before and I was tired of grinding my beans, thus having a mess. Good luck/brewing, I love mine

Maybe the shower head is clogged? You can't really adjust the drip speed. And mine makes perfect coffee, the grounds being thoroughly soaked. Try to remove and thoroughly clean and rinse all the parts you can safely get to (shower head, riser, etc). Maybe if it's partially clogged that will remove the debris. Also they make cleaning tabs for coffee pots. Maybe run a few carafes of water with the cleaner.

Depending on how long you've had it, how long in between usages, what kind of 'milk' or milk product such as Silk has been used, it's possible it just needs some special cleaning. I had to run a weak solution of vinegar through the coffee maker part of mine as well as taking the steamer nozzle apart and soak it in a weak solution of vinegar, then used filtered water to run some steam back through the nozzle to rinse it well. Hope that's useful.

I don't know. It happened shortly before the coffee maker went out completely. It always took quite a lot of cleaning cycles with vinegar and water for the light to go out before, but this time it just wouldn't go out. And we always cleaned it soon after the clean light showed up, so not sure why this unit acted as it did. I just read the other answers to your question, and we did follow the directions in the manual. We selected the clean cycle and pulled out the filter and still had issues.

Try (with the aid of a dishtowel) tipping it upside down onto a coffee basket filter in your sink; this lets you pour out any excess water still in the chamber and easily remove the basket while hot, but keeps the grounds inside the filter and easy to dispose of. Works for me if I want to clean it while it's hot. If I can wait 20-30 minutes for it to cool off a little, I just lift it up with a fingernail.

I've had my machine for less than a year, and lately also have not been able to get the water to push through the grounds as it always has. I've taken the baskets apart, cleaned all the filters, made an attempt at descaling, and still, the water flow stops at the grounds. My espresso machine's constipated! I'll try what Bill says, but I'm doubtful. I think it may be time already to shell out more money for repair or another model.

Mine stopped working because the overpressure valve failed. No matter what I did, I couldn't get enough pressure built up to make the water come up through the coffee grounds and into the top chamber. Maybe your S.A.F.E. valve needs to be cleaned? If that doesn't resolve your issue, I'd say it's junk.

OKAY this is what he said: I took the coffe machine apart. Some of the tubes were a bit trickey to get to and to get back on but it was fun to figure out. The top of the machine is where the hot watter bubbles up and then is dispursed into the coffee drip area. The cover the directed the bubbles from up to over just snapped into place. There is a grove to help seal this cover but ours did seal right. I removed the cover, put a thin line of silicone sealant in the groove and re-installed the cover. I let it dry for a few days so no silicone would seep into the bubbles then into the coffee. It seems to be working. OKAY this is what he said: I took the coffe machine apart.

Yes I had to wash mine, but I usually do that and run just water for the first brew on any new coffee maker. When I did not do this, I noticed the burnt plastic taste/smell to the coffee as well. Also be careful with the flimsy K-cup brewer mechanism. Mine broke after about 3 uses.

I experienced the same problem. I was not able to resolve. I no longer have to coffee maker.

Not sure of the problem you're having. I just fill up cup that came with the maker, pour it in the back, put 2 scoops of coffee in filter and turn it on. It does take a few seconds for the water to heat up, however. If that's not happening I suggest calling the 800 number in the instructions. Good luck.

Sell the carafe on eBay and put the rest in the garbage. Mine did the same after 3 months.

Mine did the same thing. Turns out it was leaking coffee through the metal heating plate at the base of the tank. Tightening the screws on the metal plate did not solve the problem. Possibly I warped it by pouring cold water on it while it was hot? Not something I normally do but it may have happened once or twice.
